   Has anyone done this, and how easy do the saxo ones come off?
   What other badges have people used there on a VTR?
   also is there any holes behind there, and do the new badges hide them?
   Pics wouls also be good, need to decide as old vtr badges are looking a bit tatty, and want to do something a little different
   
   Thanks

   the vtr badges just peel off they are stuck in with glue. iirc the c2 badge is an actual badge, not a sticker badge like the saxo ones?
   
   so you will be leaving an unfilled hole in your bumpstrip. Oli (S34MER) has a VTR badge on his saxo where the 16v badges would be on a VTS and that looks quite good.
   
   Hope this helps

   I've got C2 badges on mine, removed the yellow backing part so they don't sit out to far.
   
   
   
   
   I didn't really like the yellow R, so it has now been painted red to match the calipers

   Yes, those were the ones I got, same seller.
   
   I just used the red hammerite that I used for the calipers, only been a couple of weeks, so far the paints OK.

   The hole on the drivers side is hidden by the R, the V on the passenger side didn't quite cover it, but its only noticable when up close.

    looks very nice,but is it worth the hassel?? and is it possible to replace the old ones if you change your mind.
